What is Plant Propagation? Increase numbers of a species Perpetuate a species Maintain youthfulness of plant
![Page 3: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Two Kinds of Propagation (Reproduction) Sexual
Pollen and egg combine genetic material to create a new, uniquely individual plant
Asexual Cloning a new individual from a part of
a single parent plant
![Page 4: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Two Types of Cell Division Mitosis
One mother cell divides to form two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the mother cell
This is normal plant growth Meiosis
One mother cell divides to form gametes (reproductive cells, egg, pollen)
No gamete formed is genetically identical to the gametes that combined to form the parent plant
![Page 5: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Sexual Reproduction Meiosis occurs in mother cells in flowers
Chromosome number is cut in half Random shuffling of genetic material (DNA)
occurs• Pollen (male)• Egg (female)
Fertilization occurs Pollen grain lands on stigma and germinates,
and deposits its chromosomes, in the egg, a seed is formed

CreatingHybrids1. Remove anthers from the flower of the
female parent prior to pollen maturation to prevent self-pollination.
2. Collect pollen from the male parent. 3. Transfer the pollen to the stigma of the
female parent using a fine brush. 4. Tag the flower, indicating the date and
the cross made (female x male). 5. Harvest the mature seed. 6. Plant the seed.

Propagation from Seed Use high quality seed Use seed that is adapted to your
local conditions Check seed purity (weeds, chaff,
etc) Store in a cool (40oF) dry place Seed Saving-know what you are
doing
![Page 13: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Factors that affect seed germination Water Oxygen Light Temperature Dormancy
![Page 14: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Germination - Water Seed coat may inhibit imbibition
(absorption) of water Adequate supply of water is crucial
after seed coat has been overcome Too little water and the embryo will
not grow properly Too much water can encourage
disease
![Page 15: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Germination - Light Some seeds have a light
requirement that must be met Others will not germinate if light is
present Seed packets should provide
instructions
![Page 16: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Germination - Oxygen All live seeds are respiring Dormant seeds have a lower
requirement Once a seed starts to germinate,
aeration is critical
![Page 17: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Germination - Temperature Some seeds are sensitive to germination
temperature It is usually heat that increases
germination (i.e. tomatoes, beans) Bottom heat is used in some greenhouse
situations In the environment, soil temperature is
critical for proper germination
![Page 18: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Seed Dormancy Innate ability of a seed to germinate
when conditions are optimum for survival
Types Physical (seed coat) Physiological/Chemical None
![Page 19: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Seed Dormancy - Physical Seed coat – air/water cannot get in
even if temperature is correct Can be broken by
Sandpaper File Going through an animal’s gut Soil microorganisms Fire
![Page 20: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Seed Dormancy - Physical

Seed Dormancy – Physiological/Chemical Hormones present in the seed
prevent ripening or development of the embryo
Stratification Vermiculite Sand Paper towel
![Page 22: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Starting Seeds - Media Free of disease, weeds, and insects Homemade mix
1/3 sterile soil 1/3 sand, vermiculite, or perlite 1/3 peat moss
Commercial potting soil Do not use untreated soil
![Page 23: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Starting Seeds - Containers Buy commercial flats and containers
from gardening supply companies
![Page 24: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Starting Seeds - Containers Wood seed trays can be built Used commercial flats and pony
packs should be sterilized in a 10% bleach solution
Milk cartons, pie pans, etc can also be used if sterilized and holes are punched
![Page 25: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Seeding Start seeds at proper time Plant at the proper depth Legumes should be inoculated Cover seed with appropriate
material: perlite, vermiculite, sand Pre-germination is a good way to
start tomatoes, peppers, and other plants that need an early start
![Page 26: Plant Propagation Jeff Schalau Assoc. Agent, Agriculture & Natural Resources University of Arizona, Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d845503460f94a6a837/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Transplanting Seedlings Don’t leave seedlings in flat or
container too long Allow a “hardening off” period Be gentle with the root systems Give them adequate space Water and fertilize after
transplanting

Cuttings Stem – most common
Tropicals – anytime Hardwood – fall or dormant season best
Others – tip, cane, eye, heel, leaf, root Media – appropriate for plant Necessary: moist environment, well
aerated, and minimal disease Success may be increased with rooting
hormones/auxins and bottom heat
